打工姐妹花第二季 第137期:麦克斯的反思

 Tomorrow, we only need to sell 140 cupcakes. 明天，我们只需卖掉140个小蛋糕就行。

140 cupcakes! That's not so hard. How many did¹ we sell today? 140个小蛋糕！不难嘛。我们今天卖掉了几个？

Four. And all were to Johnny. 四个。都卖给强尼了。

I think I've made² a terrible³ mistake⁴. 我觉得我犯了大错。

It's only been three days. Business⁵ will pick⁶ up. 才刚开始三天而已。生意会慢慢起步的。

No, with Johnny. It's different now that he's available⁷. 不，是跟强尼的事。情况不同了，他现在是单身。

Maybe I'm the kind of person⁸ who only wants something they can't have, 说不定我是那种人，只喜欢得不到的东西，

and then when they get it, they don't want it anymore⁹. 然后一旦得到又不喜欢了。

Okay¹⁰, but do you feel that way about the cupcake shop too? 那你对我们的小蛋糕店也有这种感觉吗？

No, I love our cupcake shop. 没有，我爱我们的小蛋糕店。

Wow, that's the first time I've ever¹¹ said¹² I loved anything out loud, except¹³ for robitussin. 哇，这是我第一次脱口说出我爱某样东西呢，我只对感冒糖浆说过。

It's Johnny. 强尼来了。

Well, I know what I have to do. 好吧，我知道我该怎么做。

Max, you can't change your mind¹⁴ about him now. He's our only customer¹⁵! 麦克斯，你不能现在反悔啊。他是我们唯一的顾客！

By the way, I've always loved him. Hey, guys¹⁶. 我一直以来都很喜欢他呢。你们好啊。

Um, could¹⁷ we talk in the kitchen? 我们能进厨房里谈谈吗？

Wait, before you go, I just wanna say that no matter what goes down in life¹⁸, 等等，在你进去之前，我想说，无论生活中发生了多少挫折，
